Flash shooting
5Flash shooting
The camera sets the flash mode according to various factors such as firing pattern and flash
timing. Available flash modes depend on the exposure mode. The flash modes are available
to optional external flashes.
Auto flash AUTO
The flash fires automatically in low light or backlight conditions.
To shoot a subject with backlighting, position the AF target over the subject.
Flash synchronization speed/Slow limit
Shutter speed can be changed when the built-in flash fires. g#X-SYNC.” (P. 101),
#SLOW LIMIT” (P. 101)
Red-eye reduction flash !/H
In the red-eye reduction flash mode, a series of
pre-flashes are emitted just before the regular
flash fires. This helps accustom the subject’s
eyes to the bright light and minimizes the red-
eye phenomenon. In S/M mode, the flash
always fires.
xNotes
After the pre-flashes, it takes about 1 second
before the shutter is released. Hold the camera firmly to avoid camera shake.
Effectiveness may be limited if the subject is not looking directly at pre-flashes, or if the
shooting range is too far. Individual physical characteristics may also limit effectiveness.
Slow synchronization (1st curtain) #SLOW
The slow synchronization flash is designed for slow shutter speeds. Normally, when shooting
with a flash, shutter speeds cannot go below a certain level to prevent camera shake. But
when shooting a subject against a night scene, fast shutter speeds can make the background
too dark. Slow synchronization allows you to capture both the background and the subject.
Since the shutter speed is slow, be sure to stabilize the camera by using a tripod so as not to
cause the picture to be blurred.
1st curtain
Usually, the flash fires right after the shutter fully opens. This is called 1st curtain. This
method is usually used during flash shooting.
